MODERN AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS FOR PORTS
Efficient handling of containers becomes more important and due to the permanently competitive markets our laser-based products and software solutions help to enhance efficiency, productivity as well as safety. The increasing level of automation in container terminals and a high demand in risk reduction are the main challenges for port operators worldwide. In this area our laser-based systems help to detect, measure and prevent collisions, which are designed for objects and machines like cranes, containers, transport vehicles, crane booms and further equipments.
The modular design, plus the use of standard, highest quality components, allows maximum utilisation at the customers‘ existing infrastructure and technology (like for Retrofit projects), minimising up-front expenses. Our solutions are available for almost every application in ports and terminals – either on quay cranes for loading and unloading container ships or on yard cranes in landside handling areas. For example the measurement of container positions enables an automatic resp. semi-automatic transshipment of the container. The same applies to a collision avoidance between handling machines, staff, other machines and with the vessel itself. The spectrum of our systems also includes the possibility of accurate container stacking as well as exact position measurement of all types of trucks and straddle carriers. These are just a few purposes for the usage of our laser-based products and applications to optimise container handling processes and to enhance safety.
